    Issue No. 1286 20 October 2017 // USAFCUWS Outreach Journal Issue 1286 // Featured Item “Federal Efforts to Develop Biological Threat Awareness”. Published by the United States Government Accountability Office; October 2017 http://www.gao.gov/assets/690/687675.pdf Biological threats come from a variety of sources and can pose a catastrophic danger to public health, animal and plant health, and national security. Threat awareness, which consists of activities such as collecting and analyzing intelligence, developing risk assessments, and anticipating future threats, is vital to help federal agencies identify necessary biodefense capabilities and ensure investments are prioritized to make effective use of federal funds. GAO was asked to review how key federal agencies develop and share threat awareness information, and how that information informs further investments in biodefense. This report describes: (1) the types of actions that key federal agencies have taken to develop biological threat awareness, and how that information is used to support investment decisions; (2) the extent to which these agencies have developed shared threat awareness; and (3) how DHS’s NBACC determines what additional threat characterization knowledge to pursue. twitter.com/USAF_CUWS | cuws.au.af.mil // 2 // USAFCUWS Outreach Journal Issue 1286 // TABLE OF CONTENTS US NUCLEAR WEAPONS • Air Force to Fire Next-Gen ICBM Prototypes in 2020 • Trump Says He Wants Nuclear Arsenal in ‘Tip-Top Shape,’ Denies Desire to Increase Stockpile • Experts Urge U.S. Military to ‘Develop and Deploy Enhanced-EMP Nuclear Weapons’ • NATO Members Train to Nuke a ‘Fictional’ Enemy after Major Russian Drills US COUNTER-WMD • Pressing, Multiplying Biodefense Issues Plague U.S., Experts Say • Formidable Shield 2017: Ship Engages BMD Target During NATO Exercise, MDA and Navy Conduct SM-6 Test Launch • First Shipment of ANTHIM Anthrax Treatment Delivered to Strategic National Stockpile • What Do We Need?

    ICT Incident and Activists Database PERIODIC REVIEW Summary of Terrorist Incidents and Counter-Terrorist Operations Worldwide September 2014 International Institute for Counter Terrorism (ICT) Additional resources are available on the ICT Website: www.ict.org.il Highlights On September 1, Ahmed Abdi Godane, the leader of Al-Shabab Al-Mujahideen, was killed in a US airstrike in Somalia. On September 5, Godane's death was officially confirmed by the group and Abu Ubaidah (aka Ahmad Umar) was named the new leader. On September 2, a video was posted to the internet by the Islamic State (IS), titled “A Second Message to America”. The video showed the beheading of American-Israeli journalist, Steven Sotloff. In the video, Sotloff was forced to read a statement placing blame for his execution on US foreign policy towards the IS. On September 4, Al-Qaeda leader, Ayman al-Zawahiri, announced the formation of an Indian branch of Al-Qaeda, to be known as Al-Qaeda in South Asia, which would focus on India, Myanmar and Bangladesh. Following this, on September 16, the group claimed responsibility for the attempted hijacking of a Pakistani Navy frigate, the PNS Zulfiquar, in the Arabian Sea. On September 14, authorities in Kampala, Uganda, together with US authorities, foiled a major Al-Shabaab Al-Mujahideen plot intended to target bars, hotels and Uganda's largest university. Authorities arrested 19 people, and seized explosives and suicide vests. On September 16, the Arab Bank was found liable in New York, USA, for providing material support to Hamas. The civil suit marked the first time a bank had faced a trial under the Anti- Terrorism Act, which allows victims of US-designated foreign terrorist organizations to seek compensation.

    NAVY NEWS WEEK 3-3 16 January 2018 BLACK SEA (Jan. 6, 2018) The Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer USS Carney (DDG 64) fires a Phalanx close-in weapons system during a live-fire exercise in the Black Sea. Carney, forward-deployed to Rota, Spain, is on its fourth patrol in the U.S. 6th Fleet area of operations in support of regional allies and partners, and U.S. national security interests in Europe. (U.S. Navy photo by Mass Communication Specialist 2nd Class James R. Turner/Released) U.S. Navy awards BAE Systems $41 million contract to modernize USS Oscar Austin 3 Jan 2018 BAE Systems has received a $41.6 million contract from the U.S. Navy to modernize the guided missile destroyer USS Oscar Austin (DDG 79). The Oscar Austin will undergo 12 months of extensive work at the company’s shipyard in Norfolk, Virginia, the ship’s homeport. The contract includes options that, if exercised, would bring the cumulative value to $117.1 million. Under the depot maintenance period (DMP) contract, BAE Systems will dry-dock the 509- foot-long Oscar Austin. The shipyard’s employees and subcontractors will then upgrade the ship’s Aegis Combat System and will perform alterations and miscellaneous repairs that will affect nearly every onboard space. The work is expected to begin in February and be completed in February 2019. “The work we will perform on the Oscar Austin is large and complex, and will involve a large number of our employees and subcontractors,” said Dave Thomas, vice president and general manager of BAE Systems Norfolk Ship Repair.
